lemme just explain, i have no Internet access anymore, well barely, currently I'm stealing some from my sister... who incidentally offered me access whenever i need it, which is kind of cool... but... there's always a but right... half of the blogging experience is reading your bloggies man... so I'll can blog, no problem... but i can't read any of yours... so tell me, being the spastic techno retard that i am... can i follow your blogs via rss feed or something via my email? if so... ga... we might be in business!

ok so lemme know, seriously...

I'm still on leave, will start the new job on Monday, can't wait!but on the other hand i could really get used to staying at home, fetching the kids from school... strangely comforting to be around them so much... anyhoodle...damn i have so much to tell you guys it's impossible to even remember one thing... dang... I've been dangerously social this past two weeks, had a lovely bloggirls get together on Saturday and the highlight of the two weeks...

i bought myself two absolutely dreamy dresses yesterday... at a Chinese shop nogal... i know, go figure... but I'm a girl after all and dresses, they make me happy :) the owner of the shop is so funny... all she can say in english is "yes... yes!"... so i used her for some positive reinforcement comments while trying on the dresses... "don't i look great??"... her reply...

yes... yes!!!

tell me my dear Chinese woman, would it not have been a good idea to learn some splanglish or some changlish before stowing away on the first best container heading for our shores?

yes... yes!!

i know... so how long have you been here? your shop has been around for at least two years, and you still don't bother to learn the language, what's up with that? you just wiping your ass on us or what?

yes... yes!!!

*sigh* i give up...

ja i know I'm pathetic, i was really determined with the "end" but am reallyreallyfucking reallymissing this shit...

so... I'll ma see... lemme know about the rss thingymabob, maybe i should corner angel and let her enlighten me... oops that just sounded wrong right?

what a sweet surprise ;) I know you can definitely get rss, but I keep all my stuff online (google reader rocks!) so I dunno how you can tie it in via email, but there should be stuff you can plug-in to outlook like back in the day the way newsgroups used to work.

Okay doll, it depends on your email service provider. I know Yahoo! has a built-in feed reader, but these days a lot of cellphones also have built-in feed readers. Send me a mail and I'll help you set it up :-)

Please don’t not post because you can’t get around. I enjoy reading what you write.

As Sunny wrote, you can subscribe to blogs that you want to read via Atom or other services. For example, I have subscription links on my sidebar just below the visitor counter thingie.

As for the Chinese woman not yet speaking English, in the county where I pastored a church back in the '80s there where third generation Americans whose ancestors had come to the United States from Switzerland who couldn’t speak English. That was because, in the closed community in which they lived, they never needed to learn it.

You can subscribe via email... especially if the person has Feedburner on their sites.The other option is to set up the RSS thing from Outlook 2007 (if you're using that) - there's actually an RSS reader built in.Good luck with the new job!!! I'm quite jealous about the dresses, I'm struggling to find nice stuff this season

Woohoo! You're back ... nope I'm not going to say that it's just temporary because I'm going to cast a spell on you and before you know it you'll be totally under our control and so when we collectively tell you to jump your response every time will be "How high?". Oh you may laugh at that but I bet you the belt on my jeans that it'll become a reality ;-)

About the rss thingy ... I guess if you sweet talked us all enough we could possibly maybe nicely copy our posts to your email addy. But like I said you really would have to grovel on your hands and knees for that to happen :-P
